Yarnstorming at the Open Shop with Lucy Monkman Illustration & O'Crumbs

On Saturday 5 March, three York Makers headed off to the Open Shop in New Earswick, York to run workshops or offer tips on the things they do. I ran a yarnstorming workshop where we made a banner for the Open Shop.

Nicola from O'Crumbs had delicious cakes available and was offering advice and tips. The cakes were very yummy - I know I ate three!

About Me

I create contemporary jewellery and textiles, making use of constructed fabric, buttons and other stuff too. And when I’m not doing that I’m probably yarnstorming, planning the next yarnstorming project or blogging about what I’ve seen, what I’m doing or what I’ve learnt.
